1. Bake flour in the oven for 10 minutes at 350 degrees.
2. Place baked flour in a bowl and steam for 1/2 hour.
3. Remove and put in a microwable glass bowl . Microwave on high 1 minute at a time until slightly brown. My one pound bag of glutinous rice flour took 3 minutes, stirring every 1 minute to make sure flour does not burn.

Directions:
1. Sift Koh Fun, powdered sugar and green tea powder into a mixing bowl.
2. Add shortening into the flour mixture and rub until it resembles coarse bread crumbs
3. Gradually add in cold water a little at a time until a soft dough forms.
4. Let sit for 20 minutes before using.

Mooncakes are Chinese pastries traditionally eaten during the Mid-Autumn Festival. And it uses syrup that is usually made a year in advance. But in a bind, golden syrup works very well! This snowskin mooncake does not use the syrup but the traditional one does. Here is a link to one of the best ones I have seen ( and learned how to make!) : http://auntyyochana.blogspot.com/2008/08/traditional-lotus-paste-mooncakes.html
